Rachel and Chloe had a Museum of the Home wedding in Hoxton, East London, with their mums, their favourite people and their cute puppy Barney, who was *super* important. They live in East London like we do, and we love shooting local weddings with that East London vibe, so this one was right up our street!
The day started at home, with Rachel and Chloe getting ready together with their mums. Then we all caught a black cab across to their ceremony at the Museum of the Home in Hoxton.
It was a super intimate ceremony, and Barney was the ring bearer. Obviously. After confetti they had drinks at the museum, then we walked across to their candlelit dinner reception at The Marksman Pub.
Small, personal and full of people who really love these two. Not to be biased, but East London weddings really are the best, and this one was proof of that!
Thank you so much for having us along, Rachel, Chloe (and Barney!). What an absolute joy of a day!
Rachel and Chloe went for half day wedding photography, and honestly it’s one of my favourite ways to shoot. It covered all the important bits: getting ready with their mums, the black cab, the ceremony, confetti, drinks and the walk across to The Marksman. Then I left them to it. No one was posing for photos through their own dinner, and the rest of the evening belonged to them and their people, candlelit and relaxed, with nobody watching. If you’re planning an intimate East London wedding and don’t need us there until the last dance, half day cover can be a brilliant fit.
Ceremony: Museum of the Home
Reception: The Marksman Pub

For the right wedding, yes! Rachel and Chloe’s half day cover included getting ready, the ceremony, confetti, drinks and the walk to their reception, which is all the important bits. It also left space for a relaxed candlelit dinner with no photographer there, so they could enjoy the rest of the night with their people. This is perfect for couples who want documentation of all the key parts of the day, but without feeling like they are on show for every minute of their day.
